high ball, and all similar games, and fixes
the penalty for playing any of the latter
games at not exceeding two years in the
penitentiary and a fine of 500 to 81 900.
1t is the present law with the exception
it prohibits percentage games and requires
q gambling saloon to advertise it's business
by a sign. The object OF this last named
amendment is probably to prevent
strangers from installing a barber shop
or a peanut stand for q gambling saloon.
The consideration the Council showed to-
ward strangers in affording them means Of
learning where they may indulge in a few
hours fight with the tiger is worthy of high
communication. For true, earnest re-
the members of the Fifteenth Leg
Assembly Of Montana have earned
the champion belt.

In speaking OF the confirmation

In speaking OF the confirmation OF Mr.
Benedict a New York exchange has the
following complimentary words OF the gen.
tleman: "The confirmation of Mr.. Bene.
dict as United States Public Printer is one
OF the most gratifying features OF Senate.
ria action at the close Of the session. By
complete knowledge of the business OF his
Office and great natural administrative
ability Mr.. Benedict is fully qualified for
the post. Beyond this, he is the right
kind OF man to be trusted with an import
ant branch Of public administration. He
has never during his official career in this
State held any place he did not honor, and
We are quite sure that public experience OF
his work in his new position will be OF the
same highly gratifying nature"

Marshal Jolley took the summons in the
case up to the County jail to serve on

him to the Jail and a warm colloquy ensued
eliminating in Jolley striking Dryer with
his fist. Both men were Thoroughly reused
and blood might have been spilled but for
the interference of bystanders. The Mar
shall carried his point, however, and served
his summons on Wiikerson through the
courtesy of Under Sheriff Reynolds, who
took him into the jail. 1t is said that the
Jailer was acting strictly within his instruc-
tiens from the Sheriff to admit no one into
jail during the session of Court without his
written order. but this would not have
prevented an amicable nding being
reached. but for ilI-feeling between the

since the defeat Of the Registration bill,
can see no good in the present Legislative
Assembly, and INDUCED in a severe criti-
cism OF the acts OF that body last evening.
To tell the truth, THE MINER cannot see
wherein the Territory has been greatly
benefited by this session, but this may
be explained by the fact that there was
really but little for it to do.

The Registration bill was introduced by
a Democrat, passed by a Democratic
House and killed by a Republican Council.
In view of these facts it is beyond the
comprehension OF man to understand why
the Registration bill should be called a
Republican measure.
